Sirya is a very young talented artist with Vietnamese origins. She was born in Turin on January 23rd 2002, she has been practising artistic gymnastics the age of four. She has already achieved very good results both in Italy and internationally, also in circus arts and particularly in aerial acrobatics.
Sirya, together with her family, is a street artist: she dances, recites and amuses passers-by with her amazing acrobatics. Sirya became aware very quickly that being an artist is really what she wants to be in her life. What she desires most is “delivering” her art in the streets, theatres, circuses of the whole world, with the aim of making people smile. When she was nine, she took part in the second edition of the Italian television program “Italia’s Got Talent”. After having gone through all the preliminary steps she eventually got to the final. Sirya, thanks to this television program lept to fame for some time and this gave her the possibility to meet important people in this field.
In December 2002, Sirya was admitted to “L’Accademia di Arte Circense” in Verona, where she attended with very good results. Despite her young age she decided to take on a big challenge, and moved to a new and far away town, miles away from her family, though she still managed to often meet her sister Nicole and her mother Marja for street art events.
Sirya’s specialised in different fields: acrobatics, handstand, aerial, dance and contortion. But she has also took part in the 2013 “European Juggling Convention” in Toulose, as a juggling performer.
On the street, unfortunately, “ tools” are very rarely available when you need them, therefore with a wheel on the ground and a crowd in a circle, the show can begin...
Sirya is young but a very determined artist, very mature for her age, but above all, very sentitive towards those who are less lucky then herself. In fact, The “Tip hat” money, apart from little expenses, goes entirely to local charities in Vietnam, where Sirya lived and performed for a year and had the opportunity to witness poverty and misery and to support the project
"Il Sogno di Marja".
Sirya is ambitious: her dream is to develop her skills as an artist and eventually join a big companies like the “Cirque du Soleil”. This will also hopefully enable her to help, in a more substantial way, her Vietnamese friends.
Being an artist means being part of a magical world, a world that you can create and edit according to your likings. It allows you to paint your days with the colours of your mood, to dance and sing at work, to play the music you like and to be yourself. It sounds so incredible, doesn’t it? Yes, it is. And every artist has their own story, here is mine... TBC
